For what I know the total WWI production was 2001. You mention 2001 made for Australia. Do you mean that all of the WWI production was made for Australia, or were there additional 2001 made for Australia?


Also regarding the second part, is there any source to the approximately 300 that were made by Australia? How can these be identified, in which regard are they different from "the others"?
